Green Infrastructure: Tugaloo Beach
Following the installation of the Rover Run dog park on the hillside next to the parking area for the Tugaloo Swim Beach, WATeR conducted a water quality monitoring program & it was determined that the beach water was subject to bacterial contamination after heavy rainfall events.
Some of the native plants that can be found at the garden are shown here:
Sedge - has a vee shaped leaf section
St. John's Wort
Northern Blue Flag Iris
Button Bush
Dog Fennel
Soft Rush - with a round hollow stem
New England Astor - prune back in spring

There are also some invasives that must be managed:
